Katy thought she'd found the one
Who'd always stick around
Make her laugh and tell the truth
Never let her down
But that one Sunday morning
He up and left without a sound
Henry heard a rumour and he took it as a fact
He told someone who told someone
And it got way off track
And even though it's not his fault
The blame is sure to circle back
You jump before you look around
And that's just how it starts
You set the wheels in motion to a runaway car
You fall in love but you fall too hard
Just one little step too far
Leaves a permanent scar
All of Hannah's friends that day
Were getting a tattoo
That needle hit her skin before
She'd even thought it through
And now she's paying twice the price
And twice the pain to get it removed
You jump before you look around
And that's just how it starts
You set the wheels in motion to a runaway car
You fall in love and fall too hard
Just one little step too far
Leaves a permanent scar
It's a double-edged sword
And that's just how it is
You've gotta take a risk if you really want to live
Walk out on the wire
Dive into the flames
Hope the one you do it for
Just might do the same
You jump before you look around
And that's just how it starts
You set the wheels in motion to a runaway car
You fall in love and fall too hard
Just one little step too far, just one little step too far,
Leaves a permanent scar
